Title: Agglomerates
Inventor: REES GERAINT
IPC: C10L5/40
Filed: 1996-06-18
Abstract: Thermally shock-resistant chemically bonded agglomerates suitable for use as a combustible fuel or in a gasification process are produced by: (a) mixing particulate organic material comprising particulate carbonaceous fuel and/or animal excrement (such as dewatered comminuted sewage sludge) with a lignosulfonate, in the presence of water, with application of heat sufficient to maintain the lignosulfonate in fluid form, so as to deposit a film of lignosulfonate over the surface of the particulate material; (b) oxidatively conditioning the lignosulfonate coated particulate material under conditions permitting escape of water present in the mixed particulate material, the conditioning either being in the presence of calcium ions or being followed by mixing the conditioned particulate material with lime; and (c) shaping the resulting free-flowing plastic mixture under pressure, to form the thermally shock-resistant agglomerates.

Title: Method of and apparatus for manufacturing erbium-doped optical fibre preforms
Inventor: YANG JIN-SEONG
IPC: G02B6/02
Filed: 1997-03-27
Abstract: An erbium-doped optical fibre preform is made by introducing solution containing erbium into a quartz tube 10 having a clad layer 14 deposited on its inner surface and a core layer 16 deposited on the clad layer. The core layer is allowed to absorb the solution and then the remaining solution is removed from the quartz tube. Then, a flow of heated gas 20 is introduced through the quartz tube to dry the solution which has been absorbed into the core layer of the quartz tube. The gas is heated by heating a connecting tube 22 through which it passes before entering the quartz tube. The temperature to which the connecting tube is heated is kept equal to or less than the volatilization temperature of nitric acid. Apparatus comprises a clamping chuck 24 adopted to rotate the quartz tube and a heating source 26 for heating the gas 20.

Patent GB-2316070-A (GB)
Title: Chemical gas generator
Inventor: CORTELLUCCI ARTHUR
IPC: B01J7/00
Filed: 1996-05-31
Abstract: A chemical oxygen or other gas generator (10) which has a container (20) composed of thermally-conductive and gas-impervious material which contains pyrotechnic material (22), the container (20) being in heat transfer relation with a block of oxygen-producing material (14) for transfer of heat from burning of the pyrotechnic material (22) within the container (20) directly to the block of oxygen-producing material (14) for initiation of decomposition thereof. The container (20) is sealingly attached to the casing (12) so that all of the evolved gases from burning of the pyrotechnic material (22) are segregated from the produced breathable oxygen. The evolved gases are vented from the oxygen generator (10) so as to reduce the ignition chamber pressure and/or allow a greater amount of pyrotechnic material (22) to be burned within the ignition chamber so that a sufficient amount of heat may be generated within the ignition chamber (27) for application to the block of oxygen-producing material (14) for initiating decomposition thereof. This also allows the providing of pyrotechnic material within the space occupied by the oxygen-producing material for initiating decomposition thereof to be desirably eliminated so that a smaller filter capacity is required. The container has a first portion (60) composed of a material which serves as a heat sink for transferring the heat to the block of oxygen-producing material (14) of such magnitude and over a period to effect initiation of decomposition thereof. A second portion of the container (62), which is not in direct contact with the pyrotechnic material (22) is composed of a material for restricting heat transfer to the casing.

Title: Sampling fluids
Inventor: MOUGIN PASCAL
IPC: G01N1/20
Filed: 1998-06-12
Abstract: Device for obtaining a fluid sample has a sampling cell 1 with an inlet 5 to collect the sample, the cell having a thermal control valve fabricated from a plug 21 of low melting point solid material which on application of heat becomes permeable to the fluid being sampled. The device can be used in conjunction with an intermediate cell 6 fitted with a similar plug 21 linked to a reactor 17 containing fluid to be sampled. In use the cells 1 and 6 are brought to the melting temperature of the plugs 21 causing the plugs to melt and become permeable to the fluid from the reactor thus drawing off a sample. The plugs are then cooled to seal the sample in the cell 1 and the cells 1 and 6 dismantled by operating a connector 13. The plug may be a metal alloy or Wood's metal.

Patent GB-2329916-A (GB)
Title: Method for expansion of casings within a wellbore
Inventor: FORSYTH DAVID G
IPC: E21B43/10
Filed: 1998-09-28
Abstract: A tubular casing (72) is supported by a set of protruding dogs (88, fig 1D) which may be retracted if emergency release is required. A conically shaped wedge (76) is driven into the top of the casing to be expanded. After wedge has travelled a short distance into the casing, a seal (112) behind the wedge contacts the expanded portion of casing. Further driving of the wedge causes a series of back-up seals (82 and 84, figs 1B and 1A) to enter the expanded tube. By the time the wedge has passed through the entire casing, it has expanded the inside diameter of the casing to a dimension larger than the protruding dogs which formerly supported it. Thus, the tool can then be removed from the well bore, leaving the expanded casing in place. To effect emergency release a ball is dropped into the upper end of the tool which causes the supporting dogs to retract. This enables the tool to be removed prematurely even if the casing has not yet been fully expanded.
